But where is Xavier Dupont de Ligonnès?

After his false arrest in Glasgow in October 2019, a new episode marked the hunt for France's most wanted criminal.

This time, it was in the Doubs that XDDL was confused, reports L'Est Républicain.

It all started with the report of a couple from the Pont-de-Roide region.

They thought they recognized the alleged perpetrator of the Nantes massacre after offering him a coffee on Saturday, September 19.

The man, a vagabond, presented in their opinion resemblances to Xavier Dupont de Ligonnès.

The Besançon judicial police were alerted and carried out checks.

Until the man was checked and then… released.

Despite "a disturbing physical resemblance", according to a source close to the file quoted by the regional daily, this homeless was not XDDL.

The myth around Xavier Dupont de Ligonnès is not over
